Nicki Minaj Roasted at NAACP Image Awards!

Earlier this week, the rapper marked Presidents' Day with a post that sparked further debate. 

She shared digitally altered images appearing to show Trump alongside her in matching pink outfits while cruising in a car. 

Some users pointed out that a reflection of her husband, Kenneth Petty, seemed visible in the window behind Trump's head.

'Happy #PresidentsDay,' Minaj captioned the post.

Reactions were swift, with one commenter writing, 'Cringe,' and another asking why she didn't use a real photo if she had met the president. 

Others joked about spotting Petty in the reflection.

Minaj, who married Petty in 2019 and shares a five-year-old son with him, has become increasingly vocal in her support of Trump and Vice President JD Vance over the past several months. 

She has appeared at political events and even referred to herself as the president's 'number one fan.'

Her political shift has caused friction among some members of her fanbase, with a number of longtime supporters publicly distancing themselves.

Cole's monologue wasn't limited to Minaj. 

He also took aim at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in a segment that was largely censored during the CBS and BET broadcast. 

He later alluded to the recent BAFTA Awards controversy involving activist John Davidson, who has Tourette's syndrome and involuntarily shouted the N-word during the ceremony.

Despite the buzzy opening, the evening ultimately celebrated major achievements in film and television.

Sinners and its star Michael B. Jordan emerged as big winners of the night.

Jordan, 39, took home Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture for his role as twins in the acclaimed horror film before returning to the stage to accept Entertainer of the Year.

'Y'all really don't understand how much this means to me,' Jordan said, visibly emotional. He reflected on attending the Image Awards as a child and described the event as a 'reunion.'

'This is the place I always felt encouraged, felt like I was being celebrated and nourished, you guys poured into me,' he said. 'I felt seen here. I felt comfortable. I felt the love.'

He concluded by dedicating his award to his late Black Panther costar Chadwick Boseman, who died in 2020 at the age of 43.
